Apache Hello World Benchmarks is a benchmarking tool that seeks to give a sense of Web application execution speed on various software platforms running under the Apache Web server. Benchmarks can vary greatly from system to system, so this tool allows one to get numbers on one's own platform. Applications tested include mod_perl, mod_php, Tomcat, and Apache::ASP, with over 62 benchmarks in all.

Aranha is an application that uses an XML-RPC
layer to retrieve information from one or more
servers. The type of information gathered is
implemented via plugins, and can be displayed or
archived in several different ways. The data is
gathered in Round Robin Databases (integrated with
rrdtool) and can be accessed using a XUL interface
available from the system. Plugins are very easy
to write.

AutoNOC is a high performance, production
integrated, peer-to-peer network operations
management platform for Windows and Linux. It
provides real-time historical analysis, root
cause, fault detection, reporting, alerts and
alarms, and no-nonsense correlation. It is an
interoperable vendor independent solution with
built-in support for Microsoft, Cisco, Linux, IBM,
and other major technologies. Additionally it
offers many novel capabilities, including end user
personalization, easy scalability, compressed
historical databases, infinite histories, event
archiving (it works as a syslog server), and
multi-language support.

Automatos provides tools for automated performance analysis, capacity planning, and real-time monitoring of services across multiple platforms (Linux, NT/2000/XP, AIX, Solaris, Tru64, and HP-UX). The performance analysis service assists in identification or prevention of problems with computers within a company's network. The capacity wizard provides hardware upgrade planning support, suggestions being based on current (or simulated) growth rate. Real-time monitoring allows users to remotely monitor their machines from either a Web or a WAP console, generating notifications based on user-defined thresholds. Automatos is a low-intrusion system that uses strong encryption and compresses data for optimal and minimum bandwidth usage. Reports are generated in PDF format in several different languages. Ad-hoc online report generation and customization is also available.

BRL-CAD is a powerful constructive solid geometry solid modeling system that includes an interactive geometry editor, ray-tracing support for rendering and geometric analysis, path-tracing for realistic image synthesis, network distributed framebuffer support, and image and signal-processing tools.

BaukBench is a HTTP/1.1 benchmark/stress test tool for measuring performance of Web servers. The advantage of BaukBench compared to other HTTP benchmark tools is that it does not have limitations which produce performance bottlenecks on the client side that make it impossible to measure the server's maximum performance. BaukBench includes support for benchmarking static or dynamic content, an unlimited number of simultaneous HTTP connections, low CPU and memory requirements, detailed statistical data, and many other features.

BixData is a cluster management tool that includes monitoring and system administration features. It monitors services (HTTP, ping, POP3, SMTP), performance, and processes. It has a management console for VMWare and Xen that supports multiple virtual machine hosts and guests. It can create critical notifications and send email alerts for any system event (HTTP, ping, CPU, memory, SMART diagnostics, VM stats). A graphical desktop supports real-time dynamic graphs. The runtime agents and server components are lightweight and easy to set up and run.

Bootchart is a tool for performance analysis and
visualization of the GNU/Linux boot process.
Resource utilization data and process information
are collected during the boot process, and can
later be displayed in a PNG, SVG, or EPS encoded chart.
Analyzing the chart will help in finding
opportunities for optimization.
